Releasenotes LC8.1.7 RC3

Hi,

maybe i don't see too well, but reading the releasenotes of LC8.1.7 RC3.
I don't see anything about this version and why it has been released, only info about RC2 and RC1.

But i did see something about MergAVcam, where can one get it?

Thanks!

Hi Jerry,

The 8.1.7 RC-3 has been released because it fixes an issue when building iOS apps with Xcode 9. Here is the text from the release email:
Release Contents
================

LiveCode 8.1.7 RC-3 contains an important change:

Using Xcode 9 for building iOS standalones in LiveCode 8.1.7 RC-3 now creates a universal binary, i.e. the binary contains both a 32bit slice and a 64bit slice. This means that you can install it in older Apple devices that have a 32bit chip (and thus require the app to have a 32bit slice), such as iPhone 5, iPhone 5c and 4th gen iPad.

This was not possible in LiveCode 8.1.7 RC-2.
Best regards,
Panos
